Dear Keishanna:

The real reason you are going thru what you are going thru is because Satan is MAD with you! πŸ‘ΏπŸ˜‘ You are moving forward and as long as you keep that up he's gonna try to throw you off. Stop thinking you're being punish for something you've done in the past...the past is dead and the old you is forgiven. Keep pressing one
Love,
Yourself

Learning How To Let Go and Let God by Regina Baker

The bible teaches us to “cast all your cares upon me”…. Realistically, how many of us actually do this “without” trying to fix the situation ourselves? I would estimate a very low percentage. Learning to “let go” and “let God” is not as easy as it sounds, however, the bible reassures us to …”Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall.” Ps 55:22 and “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:7 let-go-let-GODFor example let’s consider Job’s trials. Job said: “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.” Job 13:15 KJV The taunting, “Worry Syndrome” I pose the question, if you’re in constant turmoil and worrying, why do you pray? Is it just something you do because it’s tradition? Or, do you truly seek God for peace and understanding? Forming a “real” relationship with God provides a sense of security, revelation knowledge and mostly, “a peace that surpasseth all understanding.” The bible says to delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart (Ps 37:4) What we should understand mostly from this passage is the fact that there is a process of learning just how to “delight yourself in God.” Are you willing to go through the process? If so, here are a few suggestions to get you started on your blessed journey: Pray and sincerely ask the Holy Spirit to order your footsteps as you prepare to read God’s words. Clear your mind of all self-thoughts of how you “think” it should be. (As Paul stated to the Corinthians in 1 Corin 14:36; “Do you think that the knowledge of God’s word begins and ends with you Corinthians? Well, you are mistaken!”) Be prepared to push your way through negative temptations of things like, “I don’t understand what I’m reading” or “this doesn’t make any sense” or “I don’t have time to read” or “every time I try to read the bible, I get sleepy” (well, perhaps you do but, understand that the enemy doesn’t want you to read it, speak boldly and declare the good works of the Lord that you have already conquered the enemy and you’re on your way to a victorious life in Jesus Christ!) and continue to read. (Ref: “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.” Matt 26:41) Make it a point to read at least 3 scriptures per day. Pray and ask the Holy Spirit to place these readings in your spirit so that when it’s time for you to use them, He will bring them back to remembrance. Don’t “try” so hard. God knows your heart. A sincere heart towards Him will produce results. STOP stressing. When you find yourself going to a place of stress, having tantrums or rebellious actions – STOP and ask yourself, “what do I look like to God right now?” Did you know that God knows what are needs are long before we do? Let go and let Him do what He promises all throughout His message.BUT, if you feel you must continue through a tantrum, afterwards, repent (ask for forgiveness), shake the dust and renew your mind to the will of God. Note: “Discouragement, depression, and self-pity are the result of problems and adversity for some. For others, problems are a challenge and help bring about faith, trust and victory.” 1 Be willing to go through your storm! Pick up your cross and humbly carry it to its destination! God is able to use us for His glory when we’re willing to pursue the purpose He intended for us long ago. Place yourself in environments and with people that are positive and encouraging. Instead of the “me, oh my” syndrome, with a sincere heart, pray for others. “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not to your own understanding.” Faith is the substance of things hoped for...Did you know that doubt and faith couldn’t exist in the same body? For example, have you ever found yourself in a conversation saying, “I know I should be stronger than this, oh yes I have faith BUT, I’m human too, and sometimes it just gets too hard.”? The mind can sometimes be our worst weapon against self; however, the fact that we can dismiss negativity by adding positives allows us to be over comers! It is unwise (and impossible) to seek the Lord through “worldly” eyes. God is a spirit and the bible informs that we must seek Him in spirit and in truth. Larry Burkett once said, “as Christians we are admonished to be over comers, all you need to do is ask the Lord to help you.” Scripture reference: 1 John 5:5; “Who is the one that overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.” What a message of reassurance, Amen? The bible is filled with such reassurance that all we have to do is trust God, know the word for yourself and to “let go and let God” do what He purposed for your life long ago.

Life

Dear Keishanna:
The things we go thru are a reflection of what's in our minds and what we think about...Dont have a small mind about life...THINK BIG! Be happy with your decisions. Learn from them and grow. That's the only way you will EVER be happy in life. Know what you want and evaluate the things & people that has caused you confusion. For God is not a God of confusion so that that is in your life that leaves you confused ... *poof*  BE GONE!  Life is too short... God loves you and you have family and friends who love you as well. Don't give up in your dreams because its almost time for you to be the inspiration that you are called to be...You are almost there...YOU ARE A STAR! Your destiny awaits you...Take that journey.

Love, Ke-Is aka urSelf

God is so wonderful

Right now I'm going thur a storm...well I've learned to enjoy the storms. In other words, their is joy in my heart even tho the outer part feels like I'm being hailed on. I keep having faith that God puts no more den I can bare. Up to this point in my life I've done things my way but when you move to a place where you are all alone...u realize that God is truly real! All the years b4 now I used to say "God is good" and "Lord let your will be done" but I never meant it. It was just something we all say just to THINK that it's pleasing to God...I asked God to present himself to me in a way where I can not miss him...and that's what is going on right now. What I am saying is, that if you think you can go on in life without a strong relationship with God den you are crazy! Faith pleases God. Start believing and always kno that it is well! God REALLY do love me and now in my life I can truly me the words "God is good" and "Let your will be done" because I mean it with all my heart! Y'all have a blessed weekend! Amen!
